Planning Applications affected by Epping Forest Special Area of Conservation (SAC) - Interim Position

What is the Epping Forest Special Area of Conservation (SAC)?

This note has been produced to provide an overview of the current planning context in relation to Epping Forest Special Area of Conservation (SAC), and implications for the determination of planning applications at the current time.

Epping Forest covers a large area of land within the District and much of the Forest is designated as a Special Area of Conservation (SAC). Biodiversity features within, or associated with, these designations enjoy a high level of protection under UK and EU Law and UK planning policy. Epping Forest SAC is considered a ‘European Site’ and as such an assessment, known as a Habitats Regulation Assessment (HRA), is required for any development plan or proposal to ascertain whether it will have a likely significant effect on the site.

What is the Council’s role with regards to the SAC?

The Council has a duty as the ‘competent authority’ under the Habitats Regulations to protect the Epping Forest SAC from the effects of development (both individually and cumulatively). Two specific issues in particular have been identified that could have a likely significant effect on Epping Forest SAC. These being:

1. The result of increased visitors to the Forest arising from new development.

2. The result of damage to the health of the flora, including trees and potentially the heathland habitats, from air pollution generated by vehicles.

As part of the work required to produce the Mitigation Strategy, a visitor survey was undertaken to identify a recreational zone of influence and to identify the distance the majority of visitors will travel to visit Epping Forest SAC. This report identified that 75% of visitors travelled up to 6.2km to the SAC. Therefore in this interim period a zone of influence of 6.2km is being used to determine whether residential applications will have a recreational impact on Epping Forest SAC.

Unlike the findings of the visitor survey the potential impacts from air pollution applies to developments of all types in all locations within the District. Therefore in this interim period all residential and employment proposals within Epping Forest District will likely have an air pollution impact on Epping Forest SAC.

How are the Council addressing these impacts?

The Council is currently liaising with Natural England and the Conservators of Epping Forest and other authorities affected in order to agree a Mitigation Strategy to mitigate the above effects. The measures required have not yet been established but need to be agreed and in place prior to the determination of relevant planning applications.

The Council and partner organisations continue to make good progress in the production of the Joint Strategy, however in the meantime there are implications for the determination of planning applications in the District.

What are the implications of the SAC at the current time?

Due to the above, at the current time the Council cannot grant planning permission on any planning applications resulting in additional residential development which are within 6.2km of Epping Forest SAC and ... view the full agenda text for item 5.
